Des Plaines, IL

While I have loved the last eight years I have spent as a classroom teacher, I'm incredibly excited to be working as an elementary instructional coach in D62! I look forward to working with many of you to help unit plan, co-teach, model lessons, find resources, provide support with new technologies, analyze data, and help with action plans. Please don't hesitate to ask me for anything & be sure to check out our Coaches' Corner link down below!!

  • I love to cook & am always trying some new recipe

  • Accessories are my weakness--shoes, jewelry, belts, you name it :)
  • I am a big Chicago sports fan
